A Webster man who allegedly exchanged sexually explicit Facebook messages with a woman he thought was a 15-year-old girl has been charged with online solicitation of a minor for sex.

Daniel William Riekstins, 26, began the messages on Sept. 3, after he received a Facebook "friend" request from a 36-year-old female acquaintance who had set up a fake page as a 15-year-old girl, according to court documents.

The acquaintance had heard that Riekstins might have been involved in inappropriate relationships with children, records state.

The acquaintance created the fake Facebook profile stating she was 15 years old and posted a photo of a girl who looked like a teenager, according to the arrest warrant.

She then sent a friend request without comment to the defendant, who began communicating with her through Facebook messages, the arrest warrant stated.

When the acquaintance immediately told the defendant she was 15 years old, he replied, "I like younger women," records state.

Pretending to be a teenager, the acquaintance asked, "Would you have sex with a 15-year-old?" and he answered, "Yeah u call me," according to the arrest warrant.

The messages then became "very sexually explicit" and the defendant tried to solicit the minor to meet him to have sexual intercourse, according to the criminal complaint filed by the Harris County District Attorney's Office.

A Webster Police Department detective spoke to the defendant and determined that he had sent the Facebook messages from a computer at his residence, the complaint states.

The detective learned through a search warrant for facebook.com that the defendant has attempted communicating with "many" underage females, records state.

Riekstins was not in custody Tuesday, according to online law enforcement records.
